Why does the frequency of a wave decrease as the wavelength increases?

Physics
1 answer:
VladimirAG [237]3 years ago
6 0
Because the product of (wavelength) times (frequency) is always the same number ... the wave speed. Since their product can't change, then obviously if one of them changes, the other one must change in the opposite direction.

Question:

A high ____will have a short wavelength

Answer:

That means that waves with a high frequency have a short wavelength, while waves with a low frequency have a longer wavelength. Light waves have very, very short wavelengths

Which would melt first, germanium with a melting point of 1210 k or gold with a melting point of 1064oc?
iren2701 [21]
<span>Germanium To determine which melts first, convert their melting temperatures so they're both expressed on same scale. It doesn't matter what scale you use, Kelvin, Celsius, of Fahrenheit. Just as long as it's the same scale for everything. Since we already have one substance expressed in Kelvin and since it's easy to convert from Celsius to Kelvin, I'll use Kelvin. So convert the melting point from Celsius to Kelvin for Gold by adding 273.15 1064 + 273.15 = 1337.15 K So Germanium melts at 1210K and Gold melts at 1337.15K. Germanium has the lower melting point, so it melts first.</span>

It takes 5.0 seconds for a wave with a wavelength of 2.5 m to travel past your location. What’s the period of the wave. What is
Anna35 [415]
(a) Period of the wave
The period of a wave is the time needed for a complete cycle of the wave to pass through a certain point.
So, if an entire cycle of the wave passes through the given location in 5.0 seconds, this means that the period is equal to 5.0 s: T=5.0 s.

(b) Frequency of the wave
The frequency of a wave is defined as
f= \frac{1}{T}
since in our problem the period is T=5.0 s, the frequency is
f= \frac{1}{5.0 s}=0.2 Hz

(c) Speed of the wave
The speed of a wave is given by the following relationship between frequency f and wavelength \lambda:
v=f \lambda = (0.2 Hz)(2.5 m)=0.5 m/s
